This summer, I’m trying to capitalize on the fact that Walt is definitely more interested and curious about things, yet he’s not insistent on spending 6+ hours doing something. We’re doing real good if we catch his attention at one thing for an hour. Luckily, there are so many free and cheap things to do…

Happy Father’s Day, MunkaDad!
This Father’s Day we spent it in Gilmer, which was nice because it’s always so relaxing to be in the country. Chris got to do what he loves the most, which is play with his best buddy and play some golf. So, you can imagine the excessive amounts of joy when we combine BOTH of…
The Swimming Monkey
At the urging of some friends, we decided to enroll Walt in some swim lessons this summer. It didn’t take much arm turning as Walt is completely fearless in the water. He is so overly cautious about everything else in life (hello, took him 15 mos to walk!), yet he will go face first into…
I Got a New Job!
This has been in the works for sometime now, but I’m excited to say that I have a new job! I always had the intent to change up my career a bit, but figured I’d wait until the ol’ MBA was done. Well, a series of events in December 2011 sped up the process. A…
Mini He or Mini She?
I realize I’m really grasping at straws at this point, but I thought it would be fun to explore some side-by-side pics of the Munkaman with his mom and dad as little ones. Trust me, I’m well aware that my child is 99% spawned from my husband. He looks like him AND acts like him….
Suck It, Cancer!
About six weeks ago, my good friend Brandi came to a group of our girlfriends and asked if we wanted to start a team for Relay for Life. If you’re not familiar with RFL, it is a global fundraiser for the American Cancer Society. The relay is an overnight event where teams camp out and…
Walt Gets a New ‘Do
After putting it off for (too many) months, we decided to finally go get the Munka Man a big-boy haircut. We went to a super cheesy little kids haircut place. I chose this route mostly because we wanted to distract Walt with lots of things so he wouldn’t freak out over the haircut part. I…
Walt is 15 months!
Our little man seems to be doing so much lately! He’s totally turning into a little boy and I see his personality a little more each day. I just love it. First, we saw Dr. G yesterday and here’s the stats on our giant child: Weight: 28 lbs 4 oz – 90-95%Height: 32.8″ – 95%Head:…
Walt is Walking!
I can hardly contain my excitement! Just shy of 15 months old, Walt is now putting one foot in front of the other. I have to say, the walking journey was not at all how I had envisioned. I kinda thought Walt would be an early walker mostly because he scooted and crawled pretty quick….
Happy Birthday, Reesey Piecey!
On Saturday, we had the pleasure of being a part of Walt’s friend, Reese’s, first birthday party. Reese’s mom and my BFF, Stori, did such a fabulous job on an adorable Easter-themed birthday. Before heading to the party, I grabbed my camera thinking, “what a great opportunity for some photo ops!” I keep forgetting that…
